There are four types of contacts associated with an event in RobotEvents: Event Partner, Primary Contact, Secondary Contact, and Event Administrator.
Event Partner
The Event Partner is the individual ultimately responsible for the event and the main point of contact with the event and the REC Foundation. Typically, an Event Partner schedules and creates their event in RobotEvents, is present during the event to coordinate volunteers and activities, and is responsible for organizing all of the event setup and execution. All Event Partners must undergo a background check before an event can be approved.
Primary Contact
The Primary Contact is the primary point of contact for teams with inquiries about the event. When teams email the event via RobotEvents, this email will receive those messages. The Primary Contact on an event should be the Event Partner.
Secondary Contact (Optional)
The Secondary Contact is a backup contact for teams with inquiries about the event. When teams email the event via RobotEvents, this email will receive those messages. These fields can be duplicated with the Primary Contact if there is no secondary point of contact.
Event Administrator
Event Administrators are individuals who also need administrative access to the event. There should be a reason for sharing access. Valid reasons include needing access to financial information or team information for tournament manager setup. All Event Administrators must undergo a background check before an event can be approved.
